Information-Sharing Pattern in Eradication of International Drugs Network through the Sea in Indonesia

摘要

This study analyzes the illegal exploitation of Indonesian waters territories by international drugs network through the identification of patterns and implementation of information sharing in five institutions, namely, the National Narcotics Agency (BNN), Maritime Security Agency (BAKAMLA), Directorate General of Customs and Excise (DJBC), Indonesian National Police (POLRI) and Indonesian Navy (TNI AL) in the international drugs eradication at the sea. This study uses a descriptive analytic method with a qualitative approach in which the primary data was obtained through interviews, while secondary data was obtained through the study of institutional documents and literature. The analysis tool in this study uses Good Order at Sea-Ocean Governance and Maritime Domain Awareness Theory and securitization for institutions and inter-agency working theory for the interaction patterns in marine security operations. The results showed that the potential for international drugs traffic through the sea in Indonesia will continue to increase. This shows the weak role of institutions to share information in marine security operations. Therefore, an appropriate information sharing model is needed with institutional arrangements preceded by effective cooperation procedures as an entry point for the formation of information-sharing patterns that is required in line with the maritime security challenges in Indonesia.
